When we started Project ReDesign, we didn’t know that an eco- nomic downturn was around the corner and about to reduce every income stream on which nonprofit organizations rely. We didn’t know that the number of people in need would increase dramat- ically all across the community. And we didn’t know how many organizations would need to awaken to the notion that merg- ers might be the best strategic path to preserve the services they deliver to the community. What we did know was that we wanted to help nonprofit board members and nonprofit executives see that mergers and other forms of realignment could be positive strategic opportunities to promote organizational sustainability and preserve services. This publication tells that story. By familiarizing nonprofit leaders with the language and processes that accompany organizational realignment, we hope that this 5 foreign territory can become familiar and less forbidding. Indeed, we hope it strengthens awareness that realignment may be the nonprofit sector’s best hope to continue serving the community with fewer financial resources. While we realize that organizations are working together in a vari- ety of ways, such as sharing back-office functions, contracts for ser- vice, and formal collaborations, this publication primarily focuses on nonprofit mergers. It is the result of three major areas of experi- ence and investigation: 1. The experience of MAP’s and Project ReDesign’s team of merger experts 2. Interviews with local and national experts in the area of non- profit mergers 3. A search and review of current published literature about non- profit mergers The current economic environment and its challenges are inspir- ing many nonprofits to look at new ways of doing business, and merger is becoming an increasingly popular option. We hope that this resource will help readers begin to consider the benefits and complexities of nonprofit mergers and to view them, not as evi- dence of failure in the present, but as opportunities for success in the future. Judith Alnes, Executive Director MAP for Nonprofits About MAP for Nonprofits MAP for Nonprofits has provided innovative, high-quality, cost- effective management consultation and support to Twin Cities non- profit organizations for 30 years. In 1979, a group of leaders from area corporations and community institutions joined in recognition that the nonprofit sector needed more management help to build a vital and healthy community. MAP’S Mission: MAP unleashes the power of the nonprofit sector in the community by increasing the capacity of individual nonprofit organizations to achieve their missions and by providing leadership for the effective management of the sector. Today, MAP is a leading resource for management consultation and board recruitment for nonprofit organizations across the Twin Cities metropolitan area. MAP uses a combination of its own staff, community consultants and volunteers to help more than 500 Twin Cities’ nonprofits annually. 6 In January 2007, MAP teamed up with merger consultant Ron Reed, retired CEO of Family Service of Saint Paul, who brought extensive nonprofit merger experience to MAP. During his 28-year tenure at Family Service, five nonprofits joined that organization. Later, as an independent merger consultant, Reed helped several other Twin Cities nonprofit organizations merge. Reed was invited to join MAP’s staff and, together with MAP Executive Director Judith Alnes, they developed a comprehensive new service. Thus, Project ReDesign was born. About Project ReDesign Project ReDesign helps nonprofit organizations improve their sus- tainability through realignment, a term that describes many kinds of formal collaborations. These collaborations include full merger, as well as major organizational changes. Project ReDesign encourages, guides and supports nonprofits that are considering realignment by: s Guiding a nonprofit organization through a continuum of merger options, such as merger, program transfer, joint ven- tures or parent-subsidiary relationships. s Providing resources and support to help a nonprofit organiza- tion think boldly, evaluate options, identify opportunities, com- municate effectively and make sound decisions. s Offering a merger model that consists of a 10-Step Merger Decision-Making Process and a Merger Tool Kit for use throughout the merger process. Project ReDesign breaks the merger process into four phases: 1) Assessment, 2) Planning and Decision Making, 3) Implementation and 4) Evaluation. Together, Project ReDesign and MAP have the expertise to assist with each and all of these phases of merger. The funding challenges

In honor of that occasion, I have asked some of my staff -- along with some of Milton’s prominent citizens -- to talk about their favorite teacher. For many of us, even decades after leaving school, the memory of a cherished teacher will never leave us. Please take a moment to thank your child’s teacher with an email or a handwritten note. I know they will be grateful. Here are some memories of “favorite teachers” from the past. – Mary C. Gormley Tucker Principal Marcia Uretsky: “My favorite teacher was Mrs. Hahn who taught ninth grade Algebra and tenth grade Geometry. Math was always one of my more difficult subjects and I always shied away from it. Mrs. Hahn taught math in a way that I could understand it and not just memorize it. I became an A student under Mrs. Hahn's instruction. I also learned how an excellent and passionate teacher can affect a student's growth in a content area and of their perception of themselves as a student.

  • The Norman J. Hubner Athletic Hall of Fame
    THE NORMAN J. HUBNER ATHLETIC HALL OF FAME Ron “Doc” Reed was one of the finest three-sport athletes ever produced at LaPorte High School. Standing 6-6, he made a great target as a football end, was an excellent scorer and rebounder in basketball and a power pitcher in baseball. After graduating from LPHS in 1961, he attended the University of Notre Dame to play basketball and baseball and had a particularly outstanding career on the hardwood. In 1965 Reed signed a contract with the Milwaukee Braves - who later moved to Atlanta, Ga. - as a free agent and had a brief minor league career. From 1965-67 he also filled the key sixth-man role for the Detroit Pistons and could have had a successful NBA career had he not chosen to concentrate on baseball. He made his debut for the Braves on Sept. 26, 1966. In 1968 he made the National League All-Star team and in 1969 he had his best-ever record (18-10), helping Atlanta win its first division title. On April 8, 1974 he was the winning pitcher as Hank Aaron broke Babe Ruth’s record with his 715th career home run. He spent part of 1975 with the St. Louis Cardinals. He then had eight very successful years as a relief pitcher with the Philadelphia Phillies. A fierce competitor, he had 17 saves and a brilliant 2.23 ERA in 1978. One year later he led the majors with 13 wins in relief. He was a key member of the Phillies’ 1980 World Series champions and the 1983 World Series runner-up.

  • The Newsletter of the Atlanta 400 Baseball Fan Club February 2019
    The Newsletter of the Atlanta 400 Baseball Fan Club ________________________________________________________________________________ February 2019 By Dave Badertscher; photos by Linda Lovejoy The Atlanta 400 Baseball Fan Club held its annual Gameboree banquet and fundraiser on Saturday, January 19, 2019, at the Atlanta Marriott Northwest at Galleria. This year’s theme was “All-Stars, Gold Gloves and National League Honors.” More than 180 Braves fans, honored guests, and Braves officials turned out for the Fan Club’s largest event of the year. Emcee Paul Byrd (pictured below) was a big hit. The reception and silent auction opened at 5:00 with a fine selection of Braves and other baseball memorabilia. Thanks go to Silent Auction and Raffle Coordinator Nate Morgan and his crew, as well as to Fan Club members who generously donated items. As usual, all proceeds go to the Phil Niekro Scholarship Fund. This year guests in the Auction Room were entertained by Braves organist Matthew Kaminski. Quite a nice treat! Once everyone was seated for dinner in the Cobb Ballroom, Fan Club President Howard Evans introduced the guests and award winners at the head table. Atlanta’s favorite tenor, Timothy Miller, sang “The Lord’s Prayer.” During dinner folks enjoyed a slide presentation highlighting the Fan Club’s many fun and worthwhile activities over the past year. Following dinner, Howard thanked Club members who were involved in planning, organizing, and setting up this year’s event, especially Gameboree Program Coordinator Wayne Coleman and Logistics Coordinator Judy Messer. Howard talked about upcoming Club activities in 2019, including six monthly social gatherings in the SunTrust Cabanas, our Major League trip to Washington, DC, on June 21-23, and minor league trips to see the Rome Braves and the Gwinnett Stripers this summer.

Star Tribune (Miller) p. 1 Milone, five other Twins file for arbitration. Fox Sports (Garro) p. 2 All-time great bullpens: 1970s. ESPN (Schoenfield) p. 2 Minnesota Twins Top 10 Prospects. Baseball America (Berardino) p. 4 Milone part of group of arb-eligible Twins Rhett Bollinger | MLB.com | January 12, 2016 The Twins had six players file for arbitration on Tuesday, with the deadline to exchange salary figures coming Friday. Left-hander Tommy Milone, relievers Kevin Jepsen and Casey Fien, and infielders Trevor Plouffe, Eduardo Nunez and Eduardo Escobar all filed for salary arbitration after being tendered contracts on Dec. 3. If recent history is any indication, the Twins are likely to agree to contracts with most or all of their arbitration-eligible players on or before Friday. Minnesota had six players eligible for arbitration last year, and the club agreed to terms with Milone, Fien, Plouffe and Nunez on the same day they exchanged contract figures. Escobar is arbitration-eligible for the first time this year, while Jepsen was acquired by the Twins in a trade with the Rays before the non-waiver Trade Deadline. Clubs such as the Blue Jays, Braves, Brewers, Dodgers, Indians, Marlins, Pirates, Rays and White Sox employ a file-and-trial policy that treats Friday as a firm deadline before going to a hearing, but the Twins don't employ such a policy. For example, the Twins couldn't reach agreements with Brian Duensing and Jordan Schafer on the same day they exchanged figures last year, but the club signed both of them a week later to avoid an arbitration hearing.

  • Spring Chinook First Salmon, Lastchance
    Spring Chinook First Salmon, Last Chance 4 PART SERIES 4 PART Of all ocean-going Pacific salmon, spring Chinook are the first to return to freshwater each year. They arrive in their home rivers as early as March, holding in their flesh energy reserves that allow them to fast for months before spawning. This remarkable behavior stems from spring Chinook’s unique genetic coding, which has survived for millions of years despite ice ages and floods, competition and predation. By hopscotching up river systems still swollen by meltwater and rain, spring Chinook travel into a watershed’s highest reaches. These early returners are the beating heart of complex food webs that sustain species like the Salish Sea’s resident orcas and center salmon communities like the Yurok and Karuk people of Northern California. In the Pacific Northwest, spring Chinook transcend the iconic. They are our identity. And after 150 years of increasing, unprecedented threats, they are on the brink of extinction. How we got here is a complicated story, full of dramatic roadblocks and scientific dis- coveries, hard realizations and reasons to hope. That’s the story we explore below in First Salmon, Last Chance—our four-part investigation into what makes spring Chinook so special, and what it will take to save them, before it’s too late. Part I: The Urgency of Now .................. 4 Part III: The Key in the Code ................ 18 This report produced by Wild Salmon Center 2020.
